SAFARI LODGE Tour (below) now complete (May 2003). Contact ATA if you are interested in a similar tour. On Botswana's far northern border lies the Kwando, Linyanti and Chobe River system forming a series of lakes, islands and floodplains. This area forms the Chobe National Park, famous for its large buffalo and elephant herds, considered the largest concentration in Africa. It is not only the elephant that make this very special park worth visiting, but also its astounding natural beauty. It has an amazing variety of habitats, ranging from floodplains, baobab and mopane trees as well as acacia woodlands. Chobe is known as a symbol for so many of the things that are unusual, exciting and interesting in Botswana. It is the second largest park in Botswana. In this park one might be lucky enough to see hippo, crocodile, otter and fish along with the elephant, buffalo, giraffe, zebra and eland. You might also see lion, leopard, cheetah and hyena. In addition to the wildlife within the park, the ChobeRiver is known for its magnificent bird viewing.
